The All African Jamboree is being held at the Rowallan Camp Site in
Nairobi from 5th to 15th August 1997.  A UK Contingent to the Jamboree
is being organised.  The cost is likely to be around 1000 UK Pounds
including air fare though Kenya Airways have promised half price air
fares for those travelling to the Jamboree which will reduce the overall
cost.

The plan is to fly direct from Heathrow to Nairobi and spend 10days on
camp.  The camp includes the Global Village, Challenge Valley and visits
off site to the grave of Baden-Powell and to one of the nearby game
parks.  It is planned to spend some time in Uganda either before or
after the Jamboree, possibly to attend the Uganda Scouts national camp
or to visit Scouts in that country.  There may be an opportunity to work
on a project in that country or to plan projects for the future.

UK Scouts have a joint project with the Uganda Scout Association called
UNITE which is concerned with health education, immunisation and  AIDS
prevention.

Scouts from other countries welcome.
